of course given middle of the week with bob mueller, hear from jerry nadler. hear what he says. >> jerry nadler: man of honor and integrity, led life of service to country. some have argued because director mueller was reluctant to testify and seemed older than some remembered him, his work is diminished. it is not. before he ever stepped into our hearing room, the director had rendered our country a great and necessary public service. he showed through his report and his indictments that the united states was attacked and remains under siege by a foreign adversary. he showed that the trump campaign both welcomed and benefited from this attack on our country. he showed that the president repeatedly lied to cover it up. and if that were not enough, director mueller's testimony removed all doubt. he told us donald trump obstructed justice and abused his office by tampering with witnesses, attempting to block the investigation and attempting to fire the special counsel. he told us that donald trump lied to the public about the trump tower meeting in new york, lie

the chairman jerry nadler says there's very substantial everyday the president is guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors. would you support jerry nadler launching impeachment proceedings without the blessing of the house speaker nancy pelosi? >> look, i think it's absolutely essential that we start impeachment proceedings. i'm calling on nancy pelosi to cancel the six-week vacation that starts at the end of this week for congress and use that time to have daily public hearings so the american people can learn what's been going on so that, in fact, the mueller testimony isn't the end of the story for a couple of months. but actually, they continue to let the american people see what's happened so we can make up our minds. that's what i'm for. >> they're clearly not going to cancel that recess coming up starting next week. you argue, mr. steyer, that impeachment would help democrats politically in 2020. are you worried, though, that would overshadow the message on health care, infrastructure, the economy, other pocketbook issues? >> look, i have been pushing for two years to get this show

we're getting ready for jerry nadler to come. this is big stuff. it has nothing to do with partisan politics, it seems to me, yet it seems to do that. why don't we check out all our systems like the russians but make sure we can't get hacked. we won't get honest accounts next year. >> you're right to point out this shouldn't be a partisan issue. should it be anything but that. but the republicans in the senate, you a senator today and yesterday saying look, these bills to secure our elections, these bills, one of which would require political candidates to report offers of assistance from foreign entities are partisan. saying that's anti-republican simply because i think the president received such help and has said publicly recently that he won't report it in the future. >> so he is sensitive. >> he is sensitive if we try to clean up our act so we don't get destroyed political. michael, i'm thinking about history here. imagine -- we've had a bad situation in 2000 where florida -- because everybody has a different counting system and you couldn't g

the white house obviously watching this, the jerry nadler briefing. he's probably going to talk about don mcgahn and the legal steps to get mcgahn, a reluctant witness. >> reporter: house democrats are going to get access of the grand jury material. they also intend to go to the courts to reaffirm their oversight authority and responsibilities, really, to get don mcgahn the former white house counsel who was a key player in the mueller proceed to testify before that committee. this is part of the process that nancy pelosi says she wants to see play out before house democrats move or potentially move towards impeachment. again, today, we heard her reiterate she's not against starting impeachment proceedings against this president, she's just not for it right now. she wants democrats to be able to be in the best position to make the best legal argument as she puts it. right now she sees that process as playing out through the courts. there have been those progressive whose have accused her of trying to run out the clock. the clinton impeachment was a fi

the fact is, even jerry nadler is saying, "when we get more evidence." if you had evidence, great. but saying, "if we get more evidence," that's different than "when we get more evidence." he said something very salient. there are more and more people signing on. yes, we are getting closer and closer to the democratic primary in which people like jerry nadler are making a decision to look tough on the left to get through their primary. afterwards, suddenly they are going to realize that there is nothing for their party in impeachment. that, in fact, they have to have a record of accomplishment in the general and right now they don't have it. >> julie: they don't have it but it's the data i guess it's something to talk about while they are off on recess for six weeks. >> kennedy: they are busy campaigning for president pens, which is very exciting pair left iraq i don't understand the shortsightedness. if you wound the president, just in the last few years we have seen it only makes them stronger. from that point of view, that's what nancy pelosi is looking at. you can't look at the

she's walking in and it looks like jerry nadler. that is jerry nadler. he's there as well. the chairman of the judiciary committee. >> good evening, everyone. sorry for the delay. it has been a pretty interesting day. a historic one as a matter of fact. a day in which the former special counsel affirmed in public what the mueller report put forth. it is a crossing of a threshold in terms of the public awareness of what happened and how it conforms to the law, or not. the president likes to have his poster that said the mueller report took this many days and cost this many money and this and that and the other, we have a corresponding contradictory chart. mueller investigation by the numbers. $40 million recovered for the u.s. government. remember, he said how much it would cost, less than that. 37 people and entities charged with crimes. 25 ongoing criminal cases referred. seven convicted including five top trump campaign officials. and then he had no collusion, no this or that. ten instances of obstruction, yes. no exoneration. that is some of what we heard today. i just w

jerry nadler now says impeachment investigation going on but not and impeachment inquiry. if you are confused we will let him explain. >> too much has been made of the phrase impeachment inquiry. what we are doing is what our court filings as we are doing which is to say we are using our full article 1 powers to investigate the conduct of the president and to consider what remedies there are. >> reporter: house speaker nancy pelosi sends her caucus on a 46 day recess with no clear direction on the issue, the judiciary committee wants secret materials from the mueller investigation. >> i am willing to take whatever heat there is to say when the decision will be made in a timely fashion. this isn't endless. when we have the best strong as possible case and that is not endless either. >> reporter: the president says the democrats are, quote, clowns but all in all it might not be a bad thing for the president politically, majority of americans against impeachment and many of the president's support is a privately the more democrats talk about it the better it is for republican

we're going to have jerry nadler on later. kaitlan there's another big story all connected to this which is at the senate intelligence committee. they've released the beginnings of their findings about the russian attack on the u.s. election system in 2016. and among the findings was all 50 states, russia targeted all 50 states. sweeping -- a sweeping assault robert mueller talked about during his testimony -- a sweeping assault. and yesterday mitch mcconnell and republicans in the senate once again blocked senate protection -- ways to protect the electoral systems in the united states. it's really interesting to see this all playing out at once. >> yeah. and this report is pretty damning if you read it. not only does it go into the extensive efforts to interfere in the election, it also talks about how long it dates back. it also warns about what's to come. that's essentially the reason for this report. they want people to know what to do going forward. but of course this does come as mcconnell's refusing to take those votes

and tonight the judiciary committee chairman jerry nadler says an impeachment inquiry is effectively already underway. we'll talk about that and more with congresswoman natalie dean of the committee. and our correspondents are also standing by. first, let's go to our correspondent up on capitol hill. significant developments tonight on the impeachment front. >> reporter: that's right. this is a big move that democrats are making tonight with some democrats now on the house judiciary committee essentially no longer beating around the bush tonight. they are now opening saying that we are now in an impeachment investigation. tonight democrats on the house judiciary committee are going farther than ever. admitting the investigation they are already introducing could lead to articles of impeachment against him without ever voting for an inquiry. >> there's no difference between what you're doing now and an impeachment inquiry, correct? >> in effect. we are going to see what reme remedies we can recommend. >> reporter: the committee filing a lawsuit in federal court to get the underlying g

moments from now the house judiciary committee chairman jerry nadler will brief reporters. nadler today is going to court to enforce subpoena against the trump white house. that action, part of the big, big debate over how, when or if democrats should move on impeachment. just last hour the house speaker, nancy pelosi, denied that she's trying to stall. >> no, i'm not trying to run out the clock. let's get sophisticated about this, okay. >> how long do you think these court fights will take? >> we will proceed when we have what we need to proceed, not one day sooner. their advocacy for impeachment only gives me leverage. i have no complaint with what they are doing. i'm willing to take whatever heat there is there to say the decision will be made in a timely fashion. this isn't endless. >> but the clock is ticking. the number of democrats who support opening an impeachment inquiry is now at 96. judiciary committee democrats, including the chairman, have debated opening an inquiry without speaker pelosi onboard. pelosi met this morning with congresswoman alexandria ocasio-co

but i think what jerry nadler, there's something very important for him. he's got to primary against a strong pro impeachment candidate. and pockets of that kind of -- those kinds of candidates and that electorate are popping up all over the place. so that's what some of the concern is, that there are progressives in the party that want the democrats to engage in more overt acts of political resistance. that's the balance that both jerry nadler and nancy pelosi are trying to strike. >> okay. i'm told nancy pelosi is now taking questions so let's listen in. >> 137,000 ads, in their view, crit sizi criticizing me as a liberal. i'm very proud to have. nothing is a bigger honor to me than to represent san francisco in the congress. and i say, any honor my colleagues give me, speaker, leader, whip, whatever it has been over time, cannot match the privilege of walking on the floor of the house to speak to the people of san francisco. and that -- and i do that for them. as speaker, i have to bring unity to our caucus. and do so with the boldest common denominator

jerry nadler said we need to see his immigration papers because they were accusing him of being a nazi. this is the insanity of today's politics. what we need to be talking about is the substance of what people like congresswoman omar has said regarding boycott and

i'm very, very proud of our committee, the judiciary committee and its great chairman jerry nadler, the intelligence committee, and adam shift. we'll hear from them and we're joined by elijah cummings chair of the government reform and oversight committee, a committee that is winning it's court in case as well. so i'm going to yield with great respect to all three of our chairman and then we'll take some questions. first i yield to distinguished chair of the judiciary committee, jerry nadler. >> thank you, madam speaker. today the american people heard directly about what the special counsel investigation uncovered. as to russia's interference in the 2016 election and the president's cooperation with it and obstruction of justice. mueller made clear that the president is not exonerated. mueller found evidence of obstruction of justice and abuses of power by the president. the report said that the president could be indicted for obstruction of justice after he leaves office. that trump did benefit from russia's help and the campaign welcomed that help. mueller found three instances where

jerry nadler now says there's an impeachment investigationing on but not an inquiry. if you're confused, let him explain. >> too much has been made of the phrase "an impeachment inquiry." we're doing what our court filing says we're doing and what i said we're doing. we are using our full article 1 powers to investigate the conduct of the president and to consider what remedy there's are. >> now house speaker nancy pelosi sends her caucus on a 46-day recess with no clear direction on the issue as the judiciary committee wants secret grand jury materials from the mueller investigation. >> no, i'm not trying to -- i'm willing to take whatever heat there is there to say -- the decision will be made in a timely fashion. this isn't endless. when we have the best strong possible case and that's not endless either. >> the president says the democrats are clowns. but all and all, might not be a bad thing for the president. polls show a majority of the americans against impeachment. the more democrats talk about it, the better it is for republicans. shannon, as we saw at the t

but what jerry nadler said interested me. after two years, millions of dollars with 17 lawyers, they still haven't developed enough evidence that he committed high crimes and misdemeanors. do you think we would have known by now question work >> i think he said that he believes there is justification for impeachment, but he wants the american people to see it. this is a political act. this is not about a court of law. >> right. >> what he wants to build is a case in terms of public perception. by the way coming you are wrong. in terms of public pressure it's like 65-75% of democrats who think that he should be impeached. but if you look at the broader audience, they don't think that. >> no one's opinions changed. >> what you see is this like to take up in the number of people who said he should be impeached. my thought is that nancy pelosi is the most important player. she doesn't see impeachment as advancing democratic policies or democratic politics. the politics, i think from nancy pelosi's view is, beat him at election ti

shortly after pelosi spoke, head of the house judiciary committee, jerry nadler, charging full speed ahead. >> we want to proceed when we have what we need to proceed. >> any other citizen of this country who behaved as the president has would have been charged with multiple crimes. >> julie: it has been a very interesting day, a friday on capitol hill. let's start with mike emmanuel. let's start with what the latest is on the impeachment push and the investigation. >> reporter: good afternoon. there's a steady trickle of new democrats favoring an impeachment inquiry. speaker nancy pelosi is being cautious. while the house judiciary chairman, jerry nadler, favors impeachment, he's downplaying any divide between them. >> i don't know that there are real divisions with the speaker. i will refer you to her earlier comments in which she said that we must make the strongest case. if our committee is going to recommend articles of impeachment to the house, we must make the strongest possible case, both to our colleagues and the american public. that we're in total agreement. >> reporter: n

do you agree with those words from jerry nadler? >> yes, there's evidence. i think that a lot of people are going to pay attention to what bob mueller says about that evidence, as well as a number of issues. i just want to point out in the intelligence committee, which is what i sit on, we're going to be talking about volume one, which is about russian interference in our democracy. and it's startling what actually happened. it's not -- it's not trivial what occurred in 2016. the trump campaign, through its foreign policy adviser, knew what was about to happen in terms of russian interference. they welcomed it and exploited the product of that interference. they had numerous interactions with the russians in 2016 and then they proceeded to cover up those interactions. so even though it may not have risen to criminal conspiratorial activity, it was deeply unpatriotic and that's important to talk about and hear from mr. mueller about. >> is deeply unpatriotic enough to move forward with impeachment proceedings in your mind? >> i don't know. i want to hear what

he doesn't want to make congress' decision like jerry nadler just did. talking about high crimes and misdemeanors. so i think he will be a little bit more animated than he was in that, you know, nine-minute press conference. the other point is, you know, we talked about the risk to the democrats. i really do think there's a risk to the republicans here what i think i know about bob mueller is when they start going after his people personally like they have and going after their motives and their families, i think you're going to see a very strong defense of the investigation, how it was conducted. and it was going to sort of explode a lot of the myths that the republicans have built up around the deep state corruption that permeated this investigation. i think that's a real risk for them. i don't think they want to get him going on that. >> can i throw something else out here? i'll start with joe and bianna. i still come back to where were in the political calendar. number, you have not seen the democratic candidates make much of a stand on this. i think

but you heard what jerry nadler said there. he said he believes that there is some other existence outside of the report that requires them to keep digging here. you wrote the case against impeaching president trump. what would you say to him if you sent the book along with him in august recess? >> my grandson is out fishing right now and this is the perfect definition of a fishing expedition. he doesn't know what he's looking for. maybe he will throw some folks in the water and hope that he'll come up or something the way investigations are not supposed to be conducted, either prosecutorial investigations or congressional. on fox the friday level for the hearing, i was asked by laura whether i thought this would be a hail mary pass made by the democrats, i thought it would be an intercepted pass that the republicans would use to their advantage and it would hurt the democrats. as a democrat myself, it was painful for me to see democrats shooting themselves in the foot. americans don't want to see this path towards an impeachme

and it's rich to hear jerry nadler talk about wasting time. so, it will have zero consequence i believe unless some bomb drops. >> you know what's so interesting? someone like jerry nadler who was placed on the house judiciary committee because there might be impeachment in the near future, given his background, he should be more concerned about the fundamental ways that a pfizer warrant application can be submitted. and he could be concerned that some day that could be a democrat president. >> harris: the irony on all of this is the rehabs on the pfizes out warrant, were done by republicans. that was part of the dossier process and all of that, what was allowed in, and that was more nervous down the road. and that will change your perception as much as possible. >> harris: so what if this doesn't get her any further? what happens to democrats. where is it any proposed legislation to ease the border crisis? with matt herzog, we will divide that. plus joe biden and his appearance of leftward and one of his top rivals for the democratic presiden

jerry nadler, chairman of house judiciary committee now claims that mueller does not have to abide by the rules set by the department of justice. his committee does not have to abide by the rules and guide lines of the house. and mueller himself is the one who asked for those rules from the department of justice. the radical dimms, letting it be known mueller's top aide on russia witch-hunt will be allowed to sit beside the council as he testified tomorrow. >> and this. invesinvestigating you on how bh companies are doing business. specifically whether they are breaking antitrust law, whether they are restricted competition, and harming consumers and users. the department of justice announcement rocking tech sector in after-hours trading, amazon, alphabet, and facebook stocks selling off, most down a full percent in price. edward laure lawrence with the . reporter: justice department announcing it would be abroad review -- a broad review, like facebook, amazon, apple and google, they want to know if they engage in behavior that stifles competition, reduced competition, stifles innovat

we need to ask nancy pelosi, jerry nadler, ask members of congress. i guess some of the people on the stage, 30 or 40 members of them are -- >> that's not where the next president should be thinking about the future of the country and the next agenda. we're not going to remove donald trump by impeachment. it's not going to happen. that's a fact. does he deserve it? yes. will it happen? no. so how much time and energy do democrats want to invest in something the republicans have rigged it? i think that's unfair. it's terrible. i'd rather have a democratic senate that could be a fair judge of a real impeachment trial but we don't have one. mitch mcconnell wouldn't even bring of an election issue. you think we'll have a fair and honest trial from mitch mcconnell? no. i want to destroy trump's presidency the only way we can, which is at the ballot box. >> you don't have the ballot box. that gets you back to -- >> that's a great thing. so we can continue to make decisions that are politically expedient. if we impeach donald trump, there's no way we're goin

that jerry nadler voted that way. especially since he is the guy who -- not only because he would be the guy who would be in charge of moving the impeachment proceedings through the committee that he chairs, the judiciary committee, but because it puts him squarely at odds on the record with the rest of the democratic leadership. we know as manu has been saying and reporting as of our other colleagues that this is how he felt. now he has it on the congressional record. it is interesting to see if there is a second vote. because the second vote would be to send it formaly to the -- the question to his committee. and that might be another way that they try to punt and by they i mean those inside of the democratic leadership. >> clearly, april, al green is trying to send a signal out there even though his effort at least for now is going to fail. >> well, i'm not going to necessarily say that. congressman al green calls the president unfit. and there are a lost democrats in the house that i'm hearing that feel the same w

nadler's opening statement, then the very first questions that the house judiciary chair jerry nadler asks and the first response will set the entire tone. >> thank you all so much for helping us understand what we will see. >>> boris johnson will meet with the queen son. he will be the next prime minister, but what happens after that? what does he do with the job, next. who's dog is this? it's my special friend, antonio. his luxurious fur calms my nerves when i'm worried about moving into our new apartment. why don't we just ask geico for help with renters insurance? i didn't know geico helps with renters insurance. yeah, and we could save a bunch too. antonio! fetch computer! antonio? i'll get it. get to know geico and see how much you could save on renters insurance. that's ensure max protein, with high protein and 1 gram sugar. it's a sit-up, banana! bend at the waist! i'm tryin'! keep it up. you'll get there. whoa-hoa-hoa! 30 grams of protein, and one gram of sugar. ensure max protein. at t-mobile, for $40/line for four lines, it's all included for the whole family. like unlimite

it's not an accident they are challenging jerry nadler from the left. if they are challenging the chairman of the house ways and means committee from the left and as a result democrats are being pulled to the left. how many people would have normally stood up there and say i'm for the green new deal after the goofy piece of document that they laid out talking about cow flatulence? how many people would have stood up saying we are in favor of some of these other things? they are driving the narrative. i agree with ben. if there control is not in numbers, it's in the voice and the voices going to get larger because the republicans are going to pay attention to it, the media likes it and they have mastered social media to a degree that it really is driving the left. >> chris: what about that argument, donna. in terms of their effect on the house is limited, but in terms of their effect in the national conversation and politics, in other words, as an inside game, the caucus, the outside game, twitter followers? >> they have a lot of twitter followers, but y

while we wait we show you some of the opening questioning from jerry nadler. >> director mueller, the president has repeatedly claimed that your report found there was no obstruction and that it completely and totally exonerated him. but that's not what the report said, is it. >> correct that is not what the report said. >> now reading page 2 of volume 2 of the report that's on the screen, you wrote, quote, if we had confidence after a thoe era thorough investigation of the fact that the president did not commit instruction of justice we would so state. based on the facts and legal standard we are unable to reach that judgment. now does that say there was no obstruction? >> no. >> in fact, you are actually unable to conclude the president did not commit obstruction of justice. is that correct? >> well we at the outset determined that we -- when it came to the -- the president's kulpability we needed to -- we needed to go forward only after taking into account the olc opinion that indicated that a president -- sitting president cannot be indicted. >> so the report did not conclude that

jerry nadler says robert mueller did not exonerate the president. so president trump has arrived in west virginia. you can see that he's in the mass of folks that are right there. the president is there for a fundraiser. the president trying to talk to folks there. he was june lent about what happened. it's basically a victory lap. [crowd chants usa!] you see president trump. he signed a couple hats. almost taking a victory lap based on what happened with the testimony. the president saying he basically liked what he said he believes mueller did not do a good job. president trump: what he showed more than anything else is this whole thing has been three years of embarrassment and waste of time for our country. and you know what? the democrats thought they could win an election like this. i think they hurt themselves very badly for 2020. reporter: democrats tried to get the former special counsel robert mueller to say the president obstructed justice. >> based on the evidence we heard today, i believe a reasonable person could conclude at least three
